About 7:30 p.m. I saw Rick and Kaz at Ikebukuro in order to eat Jiro (二郎池袋店).
(Oh, I ate Jiro or Jiro-like ramen today, too!)
This is the first time for me to eat ramen with Kaz there.
And today it is a farewell party for Kaz who graduate university this month and will start working for a company next April.

In front of Jiro there were a lot of customers waiting in line.
Surprisingly, some of them looks foreigners including women though it was Rick's girlfriend only who ate Jiro from abroad when we visited there last January.
Unnnn, Jiro might be universal, as this website** was created for foreigners who "do not read enough Japanese to be able to understand Japanese ramen web sites."

Large-sized ramen (800 yen)

I was able to eat up large-sized ramen easily.
But Rick said to me that he could hardly eat up his ramen in spite of the fact that his ramen is normal-size.
Therefore I got some of his noodles after eating up my ramen.
Team Ramen Satan need not a ramenist who was not even able to eat up normal-sized Jiro ramen.
It should be considered to dismiss Rick from our ramen team (laugh.)

And its boiled pork did not taste good; Kagemusha's (影武者) boiled pork is my best!


Einherjars against Jiro!

After leaving Jiro we chatted at McDonald's.
When Rick asked Kaz what he would like to achieve after joining a company, I was very disillusioned with his answer that he wanted to seek a girlfriend at first!
Idiot! What an unambitious man he is!



Anyway, it was very great for me to introduce them to each other on April last year.
It was very unforgettable for me that Rick twitted whom he would play with in the dormitory after Kaz-bo's leaving.
